12 Reasons Why "Frasier" Should Be Your Next Netflix Binge

You may not have heard of "Frasier," but trust me, by the end of this article you'll be eager to hop on Netflix and start your next round of binge-watching. I can't think of an adequate way to describe what this show is like because it really is one-of-a-kind.

Not only is it hilarious, but it has this aesthetic that, every time I watch it, makes me want to curl up with a latte topped with just the faintest whisper of cinnamon (peep the reference). Nothing else on television has the same kind of witty, intelligent humor or the expertly-created characters.

1. The quirkiness that is Frasier Crane

He's a snob and he knows it.

2. Frasier's little brother, Niles

Niles attempts to parent a flour baby to prove that he is capable of being a father. Needless to say, this endeavor gets a little bit out of hand.

3. Roz Doyle and her confidence

Roz is the epitome of the strong, independent and successful woman. She may not live her life like other people think is proper, but she does what makes her happy.

4. Literally everything about Daphne

This caption says it all. Daphne has no time for the Crane brothers' snobbery and makes sure that they know it.

5. Martin Crane being the exact opposite of his two sons

Marty's sons may be all high-class, but Marty himself is content to sit in that old recliner he's had for decades.

P.S. The license plates are supposed to mean "road warrior". Trust me, it doesn't make sense until you watch the episode.

6. The sarcasm

Again, I'm well aware that this makes no sense. You just gotta watch the show.

7. So much sarcasm, and everyone's reactions to Frasier's ex-wife, Lilith

They all firmly believe that she has no soul and is basically the embodiment of all evil.

8. When Martin's shaving cream explodes and he uses his detective skills to figure out what happened

Martin: You know what must've happened?! My Hot n' Foamy must've exploded!

Daphne: He was a detective, you know.

9. The mystery of Maris Crane

We don't know much about her, and she never appears on-screen throughout the entire show. But Maris, Niles' wife at the start of the series, is definitely a strange one.

10. When there's a cricket in Fraiser's fancy apartment and Martin unleashes a gecko to catch it

Needless to say, Frasier was not happy about having to use his cinnamon-waxed dental floss as a leash for a lizard that is hunting a cricket chirping away all night long.

11. When Niles wanted to prove he could rebel, so he decided to get high

His dad eats the pot brownie without realizing it's a pot brownie and replaces it with a regular brownie, which is the one Niles eats. Then Niles thinks he's high. It's one of my favorite episodes of any show, ever.

12. The ironic jokes

I swear, I catch a new joke that I never realized was there every time I watch this show.

"Fraiser" is the perfect TV show for every mood. Whether you need a good laugh or want something to tug on your heartstrings, there's an episode for you. So sit back, whether it's on a Coco Chanel couch or a trusty, crumb-filled recliner, and enjoy the plentiful shenanigans.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
